[About</a> the Center - International Studies | Grinnell College](<a href=“http://www.grinnell.edu/academic/cis/aboutthecenter]About”>http://www.grinnell.edu/academic/cis/aboutthecenter)
I think the college recognizes that “international relations” is something that incorporates learning across the disciplines; perhaps it is a conscious decision not to have a department that is so narrowly defined.</p>
